David Street Station Demolition

The Casper Downtown Development Authority is excited to announce that demolition of the existing buildings located on the downtown plaza site will commence on Tuesday, July 26th. The DDA will celebrate this milestone by hosting a public groundbreaking event to witness the first wall officially coming down. All members of the public are invited to attend the ceremony which will be held at 1:00 P.M. on W. Yellowstone side of the plaza site, located directly across from The Lyric.

“This is a huge step forward in the process of bringing this to the heart of our community. Today is the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. On behalf of the DDA Board of Directors and staff, we would like to thank the Casper City Council, city staff, Wyoming Business Council, our private donors, and the public for their continued enthusiasm and support – we wouldn’t be where we are today without it” said Kevin Hawley, Executive Director of the Downtown Development Authority.
